Designer’s Notes.
Our approach to the design of this scheme was a follow on from the internal specification that we had created with the technical team some months earlier. It was imperative that we carefully respected and complemented the beautiful architecture of the canal-side building conversion. The incredible chevron tiled floor and exposed cable tunnels we had sourced along with the extensive ceiling heights gave an amazing blank canvas to build upon.
A mix of modern industrial finishes such as vintage leather, polished concrete, wrought iron and blemished wood were accessorised with old-school cameras, filament bulb pendants and quirky unique items to give a barber shop style interior that was both vintage and contemporary.
